Electrostatic structure of a magnetized laser-produced plasma.
Measurements of the structure of the electrostatic fields produced by the expansion of a laser-produced plasma into a background magnetized plasma are presented. The three-dimensional measurements of the electrostatic field are made using an emissive probe that measures the time-varying plasma potential on two orthogonal planes, one across and one containing the background magnetic field. The i...
متن کاملMagnetic reconnection between colliding magnetized laser-produced plasma plumes.
Observations of magnetic reconnection between colliding plumes of magnetized laser-produced plasma are presented. Two counterpropagating plasma flows are created by irradiating oppositely placed plastic (CH) targets with 1.8-kJ, 2-ns laser beams on the Omega EP Laser System. The interaction region between the plumes is prefilled with a low-density background plasma and magnetized by an external...
متن کاملStructure of an exploding laser-produced plasma.
We describe the first-ever volumetric, time-resolved measurements performed with a moving probe within an expanding dense plasma, embedded in a background magnetized plasma. High-resolution probe measurements of the magnetic field and floating potential in multiple 2D cut planes combined with a 1 Hz laser system reveal complex three-dimensional current systems within the expanding plasma. Stati...
متن کاملNon Linear Effects Produced by Electrostatic Waves in a Magnetized Plasma
Some non-linear phenomena, like ponderomotive effects and parametric decays, produced by high power electrostatic waves in a magnetized low density plasma, have been investigated experimentally. The injection of high power electrostatic waves into a plasma causes ponderomotive forces arise. Their action primarily gives rise to a plasma density depletion in front of the launching system and subs...
متن کاملIon Dynamics in Multiple Electrostatic Waves in a Magnetized Plasma
A general theoretical study of the dynamics of ions interacting with multiple elec-trostatic waves, propagating perpendicularly to a uniform magnetic field, is performed. For appropriately chosen frequencies and wavenumbers we discover a new nonlinear phenomenon of coherent acceleration (or deceleration) which energizes (or extracts energy from) ions. Ions whose initial energies are below the l...
